You'd never guess that looking at the books I have left. But it was almost all of my fiction (the ones I won't ever reread), most of my college textbooks (which I'd been keeping because I felt like somehow they defined me--but Kant's Critique of Pure Reason, really?) and other things that I know I will never look at or lend to anyone. <br /><br />I haven't read anything on your fiction list above, but did enjoy a number of those nonfiction books, especially the Malcolm Gladwell one. Wheat Belly had a lot of interesting information, but after the whole book of saying "lose the wheat, lose the weight" it said at the end "Oh, by the way, if you replace wheat with any other refined carbohydrates, you won't get any of these benefits," which seemed a little disingenuous to me.Coreopsishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03468751724163567889noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7122591953381880036.post-35889220569295426422013-11-01T17:55:35.254-07:002013-11-01T17:55:35.254-07:00oh my goodness what a fantastic idea.
